Mexican-American super flyweight Jose Navarro looks seto to receive another crack at the WBC title at that weight as a result of a fervent protest conducted by his promoter Lou DiBella towards the WBC. Navarro traveled to Japan to contest the title against current champion Katsushige Kawashima at the beginning of this year. Navarro lost his title bid amid some of the greatest controversy seen in a fight in some years as the judges had greatly conflicting accounts of the fight in their scoring totals. Despondent, Navarro returned to America to ponder his future. DiBella was not so patient, launching scathing tirades throughout the boxing media about the handling of the decision. Masamori Tokuyama is the fighter who will immediately receive a shot at Kawashima's title, but the winner of the fight is guaranteed to face Navarro who will want to make sure he returns to his home with the WBC title.
